Buildings, Universities & colleges, Susquehanna University
Bogar Hall was built in 1951. It was named after alumnus Jerry Bogar and his son Guy Bogar. It housed the school's humanities programs, but mostly business programs were held in the building. Because of Bogar Hall's curvy stage entrance stairway, located at the main entrance, outdoor graduation exercises were held there throughout the 1950s.

Built on old potato fields, a new music building was constructed with the help of the centennial appeal. The building was dedicated in 1958 and was named Heilman Hall in recognition of Mary Heilman Spangler, who had donated a large sum in honor of her father and brother. Shown in this image are students on their way to class in the new building.
